Nurturing the future leaders in biomedical research
Fellow 1988-1993 Area of Current Research Interests Investigation of the structure and functional relationships of biological macromolecules using X-ray crystallography. Specific areas of interest are rational drug design, analysis of the molecular basis of stability in proteins and the studies…
Fellow 1998-2003 Area of Current Research Interests Understanding how during animal development cells become polarized in developing tissues or organs in a co-ordinated fashion. Using the cuticle of the fruit fly, Drosophila, as the model system and a variety of…
Fellow 1996-2002 Area of Current Research Interests Understanding the role of non-covalent interactions in recognition processes involving proteins. Specifically looking at the role of conformational dynamics and conformational transitions in the recognition of phosphoinositols, the assembly of cystatins, in prion…
Fellow 1997-2002 Area of Current Research Interests Control of chromatin activity during vertebrate development. Particular focus is on the role of histone modifying enzymes in transcriptional programming of cell fate decisions in the central nervous system.Control of chromatin activity during…
